being an insider

One of the absolute best things about being a life coach is that people let me inside their heads.

In order to really shift a life, in order to take the required actions to be successful, one has to be willing to examine her thoughts. Because this is part of the whole coaching process, my clients often let me hear the thoughts that are holding them back from accomplishing who and what they’d like to be.

After being let inside so many heads, after hearing so many thoughts, I’ve learned something incredibly valuable about human beings: They are almost always much, much kinder than they appear to be.

I think if everyone could just hear the thoughts going inside the heads of others for a few minutes (like I get to do in my job) the world would start to really look like the incredibly kind and generous place it is.
